Interpretation of the works:
“Oleander Wisteria” is the work of Mr. Yu Xining in 1941 when he was an art teacher in Qingdao Municipal Middle School. From this period, he focused on the study of Chinese painting teaching methods and knowledge system structure, and this kind of thinking and practice continued in the teaching process in the future. The flowers and leaves of this work are directly painted in color, the colors are light and varied, and the ink flow is flowing and unrestrained. Both Qing Dynasty painters Hua Xinluo and Yun Nantian have the gentle and elegant taste, but also show unique creative ideas.
